Cubs v. Braves

My first baseball game!  The Chicago Cubs v. The Atlanta Braves at Wrigleyfield.  It got cold, and by the end of the game, they were playing inside a cloud.  The Cubs won!

Buffalo Wild Wings on Cinco de Mayo

Well, we wanted to hit up some sort of Mexican place for Cinco de Mayo - but we ended up at Buffalo Wild Wings in Northbrook.  Well, we made the best of it and had a quesadilla and a Dos Equis.
